It'll definitely be an 'in-and-out' job.

You could probably do both rather than one or the other, if you ask them nicely.

Think I'm going to go but take the coach option, depending on the price.

Who's that coming up the hill boys,
The Wanderers are coming up the hill boys,
They all laugh at us, they all mock at us,
They all say our days are numbered,

Born to be a Wanderer, victorious are we....

Edited the title. Good thing the replay was today actually, because I'll be in the jungle for 2 weeks from Thursday

Surprised to see that both soton and millwall put out the reserves tonight.Doesnt anyone take the cup seriously? FA cup will be wide open this year so I hope we give it a good crack.

Here's what someone has said on another forum I frequent
I had a superb time when I went as an away fan.
Really nice ground, good views from the away end and, for a fan of a club that has no particular historical animosity with Millwall, it seemed fairly safe to walk to the stadium. I mean I wouldn't have waved a Bristol City scarf in people's faces but people knew we were away fans and didn't seem to mind.
Obviously quite a hostile atmosphere during the actual game but, before and after, I'd describe it as a warm welcome.

I've been to new 'un watching Brighton. Get the train there. If you do, it'll be weird, and there'll be more police dogs than you've ever seen, but you're not in real danger. Separate exits from the station, metal corridors, unpleasant, but safe. Depending on other things I might try to make it. Take woman, she keeps saying football is for pansies. Might change her view.....

Seriously, no can do. I'm at a 4 hour swim 'clinic' that day. Plus I like to keep my wounds in single figures. :mrgreen:

Ill be going. It looks like official travel for me though nowhere near enough time to find cheap trains at this stage.

Never been before, trying to expand my number of grounds visited, might not get another chance like this in many a year to watch Bolton there - so I'm in.
